Online individual therapy for adults dealing with chronic illness and the demands of treatment, fertility treatment and pregnancy loss, health anxiety, needle fear, PTSD, weight stigma, emotional eating, body image concerns, or caregiver strain. My approach may draw on cognitive behavioural therapy, psychodynamic therapy, schema therapy, EMDR and psychophysiological methods. We will agree on a focus and review whether the treatment is meeting your needs.

Psychological treatment can help you understand how emotions, habits, relationships and earlier experiences influence eating and body image. Work may include emotional regulation, responses to shame and weight stigma, binge-eating symptoms, and adjustment to bariatric surgery or medication-assisted weight management. This is psychological care, not nutritional counselling or medical weight management.

When appropriate, a single consultation can help clarify a specific question, prepare for a medical conversation or procedure, or identify sensible next steps. One meeting cannot replace assessment or ongoing therapy when the situation is complex or risk is present.

Some concerns are suitable for structured, goal-focused treatment over a limited period, such as a specific phobia, anxiety related to a medical procedure, adjustment to a recent diagnosis or support with a defined behavioural change. Short-term therapy is not automatically the best option because it is quicker. We will consider whether the problem is sufficiently focused and whether a brief approach is clinically appropriate.
